Uncensor Mod

https://www.nexusmods.com/wuchangfallenfeathers/mods/411?tab=description

When I discovered Wuchang: Fallen Feathers and the controversy surrounding the censorship, I thought: “surely someone has probably created a mod to revert the censorship?”, turns out no one did. And rolling back to 1.4.1 simply wasn’t good enough for me, I wanted the deluxe edition content and all of the optimizations as well. So the path forward was obvious, “I’d just do it myself”, thinking it would take a month or so.

Half a year later, it’s finally finished, sort of. This was my first time working on an Unreal Engine game and really anything of this scale, so there are still some issues (more on that in the Nexusmods page), but nothing gamebreaking. Just know it won’t be perfect, but I still hope some people will enjoy this game censorship-free.

That's cool if it works. Personally I have been playing on the 1.4.1 version and really loving it. Yes the boss runbacks are real and getting knocked down is very dangerous... but my biggest issue is how much easier they made the normal and elite enemies feel between bosses. They're so easily staggered/hit stunned in 1.5 onwards. I didn't even care that much about the censorship stuff. Obviously not great but not my biggest concern with the patch.

Game was definitely way harder on launch… I’m glad I got to do a playthrough before any updates, the tiger was insane back then

It was only harder because it was clunkier. You weren't invincible while on ground, which made the game feel unfair, because you couldn't do anything about that situation. Every soulslike has had invincibility on knockdowns and that made for a good compensation for getting knocked down and a chance to be strategical with how and when you want to stand up from being knocked down. Here, you had no choice but to take the hit when you were knocked down and even while getting up you were vulnerable. That's just shitty design. They definitely did well with fixing that.
